    JFT Saturday 31/07
    1. Stay within cals. Pre-planning has helped me do this so sticking with it. I can factor in little treats throughout the day.
    2. Drink/log water
    3. 10,000+ steps
    4. Sew another couple of squares of my patchwork. This is my summer project, but it will not be finished until autumn as I only just started it.

    I hope you all have a fab weekend!

    @ jacqueinegikow.zumba
    I loved your blog. I just recently bought my 1st road bike, the end of May 2015. I really enjoy it but have not been on any group rides yet. That is probably a good thing as I am still learning the ropes and I have noticed how much speed you can pick up fast. The area I live in is very hilly so it has caused some challenges, both going down hills very steep and back up the other side. Your blog was very inspiring to me, I just loved it!!! You motivate me to get on and ride further. The farthest I went so far is about 20 miles :wink: [/quote]

    I read it, too. Sounds like you had a great day. I love to cycle, but have had to give it up as I have a hip problem. I get a new one at the beginning of September so am dusting down my bike in anticipation.

    What an awesome idea for a thread! I feel like I really need to join in today because I've been over my daily goal for the past two days. It's still a deficit, but I feel guilty.
    So just for today I will
    1) Eat 3 meals, no snacking( I don't normally do this, but today I want to offset the past two days.)
    2) Burn 300 calories
    3) Eat a salad

    Just for today I will.....

    Stay within calories by logging everything.
    Drink more water

    Simple goals but something I rarely do!

    I was supposed to post this yesterday.
    Pretty much accomplished my goals, though I still feel more stress than normal.
    7/31
    1. Take lots of deep breaths today and stay calm. (somewhat)
    2. Log calories (yes)
    3. Take breaks when I need to but then get back to the track I need to do. (yes. I accomplished a lot, but didn't do my to-do list. Other stuff came up)
    4. Drink water (tons, yes)
    5 Get up out of bed at 6:15 am tomorrow (didn't happen and I missed Zumba :( )

    I did my the workout my trainer gave me yesterday plus 30 minutes of cardio. I am not happy about missing Zumba, but I can't let that throw off my day.

    8/1
    1. I will do a 30 min walk or cardio today
    2. Log calories
    3. Finish smaller to-do list items from the other day and then continue on other projects
    4. Stay busy, but don't stress out. Take lots of deep breaths and short moments to enjoy the day.
    5. Try to sleep by 12:30

    8/2
    1. Wake up at 7:30 and post goals by 9:30

    Yesterday worked out for 1:20. Well below my net calorie goal.

    For today, will do the same; work out for 1 hour and stay below my net calorie goal AND will not eat chips.
